I'm not sure of the art your speaking about. Can you post screenshots ?

Just launch the game and look at these Ufopedia articles. And most Ufopeadia art is equally tacky, silly or borderline NSFW.

Pls change the art for "Senior" and "Infiltrator" comendations. (it's "bad taste")

Offtopic / Dark theme of Forum

Hi.

How can I change the forum theme to light one? I have heavy astigmatism and myopia, and reading white letters on dark screen is literally painful for eyes.

Thanks.

Will save file from 2.6 work in 2.7?

Shotgun shotgun shooting slugs is better as a rifle than Hunting rifle. It's ridicolous.

Another stucking bug, this time with lone Shambler. He spawned in the corner of the map, behind the rocks. There's two paths out, they are only one grid width and Shambler being 2x2 grid creature, can't pass.

This bug made killing him very easy.

Biolab #2 in your base #2.Research tree for Armored Vest: https://xcf.trigramreactor.net/master/article/STR_ARMORED_VESTYou should destroy 1 cult ASAP to get better armor. After that other cults are piece of cake.

Thanks. Sadly, I don't have enough funds to build second base.

Several questions:

1. Ok. I got Biolab and Intel Lab, how do I speed up my research more? Which "lab" is next?

2. What should I research to get better armor than leather coat and kevlar vest?

3. Should I research and destroy secret societies ASAP, or they can wait?

Thank you very much.

This is a very rare case, as a very specific mapblock arrangement was needed. This generally should not happen, but on such a small map, there simply wasn't enough stairs (there are some, but not to this specific section - it's blocked off).

If I were playing this, my solution would be to lure the enemy down by taunting it with one visible X-Com unit.

Enemy guy perfectly sees my men, but can't jump down becouse of railings. Anyway, it doesn't matter, after 2.6 patch I started a new game.

Save please, if you still have it.

Here's a save file, where I can't reach the enemy and he can't get down too. It's from 2.5 version of the mod.

There was no such thing in the original xcom, you could play forever.

All countries will sign treaties with aliens if you play long enough, it's only a matter of time.

In original xcom there was a race with time, if you don't research and storm Mars, ayys would eventually win. Is there a similar thing in this mod?

I encountered a map bug where I can't reach an enemy and he can't too. A mission where you disguise as construction workers and arm only with melee weapons. Against Exalt. One guy is on fourth level platforms, he can't get down and I can't kill him without firearms.

I can upload save file, if you are interested.

>do you mean one of the tavern missions

Yes, it was a "Meeting with informer" mission, which turned out to be a trap. Bunch of Cult of Apokalips cowboys.

I will skip it then, thanks.
